Remainders in math expressions

Image
A Remainder is the portion is left unused after doing some process,In this context remainder is a number which is left when a number is divided by another number. In the basic levels of our education,we learn how to find remainders of normal maths expressions like Remainder("5",4)=1 but what if the question is asked in the form of Remainder( "19*19*17*21*9" ,"5") calculation part requires more time than the time we get to solve the same in the exam if we follow traditional methods. Divisor A number by which another number to be divided.

Finding L.C.M and H.C.F of two numbers and applications

Image
L.C.M can be defined as Least Common Multiple of all the numbers. H.C.F can be defined as Highest Common Factor of all the numbers. Important formulae: LCM*HCF=product of the numbers. If any number is factor of other then LCM is bigger one and HCF is the other. In general to find LCM,we need to write all the multiples of given numbers and find common number in the series similarly to find HCF of few given numbers,we need to find all factors of given numbers and identify big such factor common for both the numbers but this is a time taking process so we are here for you with some other trick. First let us know about the traditional methods to find LCM,HCF. In traditional method,to find LCM of 4,15 we have to write multiple series of both the numbers. Identify common number in both. Multiples of 4: 4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32,36,40,45,58,52,56, 60 ,64......... Multiples of 15: 15,30,45, 60 ,75.......... we can say 60 is LCM of 4,15 but this takes more time. I

Prime factorization

Image
Prime factorization is a method of representing a number in terms of multiples of prime numbers which is more powerful in identifying co-primes, LCM, HCF, number of its factors. What are prime numbers? These are the numbers which have no factors other than one and itself. Divide and rule was

Numbers and number systems

In this post let us clearly know about the classification of the number system.before classifying numbers let us know about numbers and number systems.  what is a number? =>A number can be defined as a group of digits which have some value. what is a number system? =>The systematic way in which numbers are organized
